The U.S. government has an emergency plan (containment plan) to prepare for the detention of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, Fox News reported on the 21st (local time).

According to Fox News, it is according to a reliable defense intelligence official, and the US government has a wide range of plans to prepare for Kim's death, and reports that this plan takes into account all the problems that could occur in the event of Kim's death.

The official said that there is a possibility of a large humanitarian crisis in North Korea during the time of Kim Yu-go's death.

Fox News quoted multiple sources of information and said the plan also included China's response to what was happening in North Korea.

He also added that sources called attention to reports that raised Kim's hypocrisy.

It seems to be due to the nature of reports related to North Korea that are not easy to confirm.

It seems that the emergency plan that Fox News reported on this day was not directly related to Kim's current situation, but rather the emergency plan that the US authorities had prepared for the emergency.

Although few US officials explicitly mention the existence of an emergency plan against Kim's death, the likelihood of emergencies that may arise in relation to North Korea and the need to prepare for it is also at the general level of the defense minister or the chairman. Often mentioned.

Chairman Kim did not attend the visit to the Geumsusan Sun Palace on the 15th, the birthday of his grandfather, President Kim Il-sung, and a health abnormality arose.

The South Korean government says there are no unusual trends in North Korea, and Kim is said to be staying in Wonsan, Gangwon-do.
